Can you imagine the place where the most romantic
marriage proposal is underway? The Everest will be
surely listed on the item. Yesterday, by speaking out
the word "marry me", Big Xiong deeply moved his girl
friend Yu Zhang who had made a long trek and got to
the base camp to cheer his boy friend climbing the
Zhangzi Apices.

They had been in love for many years. On May 2, Yu Zhang struggled to the
5100m base-camp getting over a bad lot of trouble. When Big Xiong came back to
the camp at 5:00 p.m. yesterday, he found his girl friend just waiting for him
there. To everyone's surprise, he walked out of the camp immediately, found
some elders in the team and asked them to come with him. At the moment no one
knew what would happen. They just saw Big Xiong walked towards Yu Zhang who
was sitting on the spring bed, kneeled down, and said, "Everest as my love
proof, please marry me!"

Color graphics had been taken by the color-display Report Group of China
SOHU at the attitude of 6666 meters. Report group: at 12:10 today, Yongfeng
Wang (captain of the team) and Chaoyang Zhang (vice-captain) began their
mountain-climbing tour. They reached the altitude of 6666m at 13:44, and took
some color pictures that had been sent back. For the moment they had started
to get back and they were supposed to return to the Base Camp tonight. Because
of the heavy wind up the mountain, they held together hand in hand to conquer
the big trouble. (Mu Zhao) The moment witnessed by history: a wonderful
wedding in the Base Camp Reported by China SOHU color-display group: Today at
3:00 p.m., a special wedding was going on in the Everest Base Camp. The famous
mountaineer Liangpu Yu presided over the wedding ceremony as the presider and
chief witness of the espousal. Yongfeng Wang, Chaoyang Zhang, and Zhixin Li
(vice-president of the mountaineering association) all fervidly congratulated
on their marriage in succession.

SOHU color-display report group: the team won't change the plan of
struggling for the zenith Message from the Everest Base Camp by the SOHU
report group: the rhythm of mountain climbing had been disturbed by the
continued heavy wind. At 13:00 on May 6, the magnates of the team- Yongfeng
Wang (captain), Liangpu Yu (deputy commander in chief), and Nima Ciren

future. And they were most likely to agree that they stick to the original
climbing plan. According to the original plan, the week duration of climbing
